The Bulldogs hosted the second-most spring game fans in college football in 2022 with 68,002 attendees. Oklahoma was first with 75,360.

Kirby Smart and Georgia have the challenge of refocusing following their 2021 national championship victory. Georgia football has to replace a lot of production on defense and at the wide receiver position.
Georgia’s spring game is critical for recruiting. Top recruits from across the country will travel to Sanford Stadium to watch the defending national champions. Kirby Smart and Georgia already have the top-ranked class of 2023 in the country.
UGA football has some interesting storylines throughout spring. Who will win the starting jobs at quarterback, offensive guard, linebacker, and more?
Georgia’s starting quarterback for much of 2021, Stetson Bennett, only attempted four passes in the 2021 spring game. Fans should not put too much stock in the spring game, but it does provide a first glimpse at how the 2022 Georgia Bulldogs will look.

Georgia Bulldogs fans can watch the Dawgs play in G-Day spring game at 2 p.m. on TV’s SEC Network+.
G-Day is finally here for Georgia Bulldogs fans! The G-Day spring game will give fans with access to SEC Network+ an opportunity to watch the Dawgs on TV for the first time since the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl.
Kickoff is set for 2 p.m. at Sanford Stadium. Many Bulldog fans won’t be happy that the contest is on SEC Network+ because it requires additional steps for those who are unfamiliar with the platform.
The G-Day game will be televised on SEC Network+, which can be accessed via the ESPN app, but you will need a TV or cable provider log in to access the game. SEC Network+ is a separate station from the SEC Network. Click here to access the game via Watch ESPN (cable log in required).
The 2019 edition of G-Day lasted about two hours. We’d suggest watching the start of the game, since that’s when the starters like JT Daniels will play the most.
The best course of action for around 20,000 fans is to sit in their seats at Sanford Stadium. Most fans aren’t lucky enough to be attending the game, but would like to get a peep of the Georgia Bulldogs before they open the season against the Clemson Tigers.
Tom Hart, Jordan Rodgers and Cole Cubelic will call the game on SEC Network+. The spring scrimmage will also be carried on much of the Georgia Bulldogs Sports Network from IMG with Scott Howard and Eric Zeier announcing the Dawgs in action.

Georgia Bulldogs football returns for the G-Day spring game. Georgia will scrimmage on April 17.
Football is back for Georgia Bulldogs fans! The G-Day spring game provides only a taste of Georgia football action, but at this point in the offseason we’ll take it.
Georgia Bulldogs fans will get to see highly ranked recruits Brock Vandagriff, Lovasea Carroll, Amarius Mims and more for the first time in Sanford Stadium.
Here’s some important information to know for G-Day per Georgia football’s official website:
University of Georgia football fans will get their first glimpse of the 2021 Bulldogs on Saturday, April 17, when the Red team faces the Black team at the annual G-Day intrasquad game, presented by Atlanta BMW and Piedmont Healthcare on Dooley Field at Sanford Stadium. Kickoff is set for 2 p.m.
All tickets to the G-Day game have been sold. Like last season, attendance at G-Day will be limited to approximately 20-25 percent of full capacity at Sanford Stadium. Attendance at Georgia’s three home games in the 2020 season was listed at 20,524. Seating will be reserved and in groups intended to maximize social distancing.
Stadium gates will open at 12 p.m. and the Dawg Walk will commence in the Tate Center parking lot at 12:55 p.m.
Last season the UGA Athletic Association enacted a number of game-day policies in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Many of these policies will remain in place for the G-Day game.
Before the game, fans are not allowed to tailgate on campus for G-Day. Fans can tailgate nearby in their cars. Fans are encouraged to social distance from people who they will not be sitting with.
The G-Day game will be televised on SEC Network+, which can be accessed via the ESPN app, but you will need a TV or cable provider log in to access the game. SEC Network+ is a separate station from the SEC Network.
Tom Hart, Jordan Rodgers and Cole Cubelic will announce the game on SEC Network+. The spring scrimmage will also be carried on much of the Georgia Bulldogs Sports Network from IMG with Scott Howard and Eric Zeier calling the action.
It is great to see Georgia return to hosting a traditional G-Day. The game is an excellent opportunity for student athletes to compete and gain valuable experience.
It was sad, but necessary that last year’s G-Day was cancelled. Hopefully the 2021 G-Day can begin a new long streak of consecutive spring football games for the University of Georgia. Georgia fans will get to see if the offense is ahead of the defense at this point in the offseason.
